Thank you for your message. When a gTLD domain name is first registered, it cannot be transferred for 60 days. That’s a no-exceptions ICANN policy included in the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy and the functional specifications of each registry agreement (see for example section 3.1.1 of the functional specs for .com at: http://www.icann.org/tlds/agreements/verisign/appendix-07-01mar06.htm). When a domain name is transferred from one registrar to another, the gaining registrar has the right to deny outgoing transfers for 60 days, but is not required to. You can find this rule in the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy, located at http://www.icann.org/transfers/policy-12jul04.htm. Specifically, I refer to item number 9 in section A.3.

I hope this is helpful.

Regards,

ICANN Services

Dear Richard Angulo, (Customer ID:)

Thank you for contacting us. We can manually acknowledge the transfer to godaddy prior to the end of
the 60 day transfer lock as the domain will be going back to it's
previous registrar.

Please let us know if you wish us to manually override this lock.

Thank you.

If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Sincerely,
Transfers Department
1&1 Internet

Dear Sir/Madam:

Thank you for your inquiry. However, the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy, applicable to all ICANN-accredited registrars, provides that the registered name holders must be able to transfer their domain name registrations between registrars. You must wait 60 days after the initial registration or any previous transfers to initiate a transfer.

Regards,

ICANN Services
